Question 21 Mark
Answer
  1. 80º
    Solution:
    Since AOB is a straight line,
    $\angle\text{AOC}+\angle\text{COD}+\angle\text{BOD}=180^\circ$
    $\Rightarrow(3\text{x}-10)+50+(\text{x}+20)=180^\circ$
    $\Rightarrow4\text{x}+60=180$
    $\Rightarrow4\text{x}=120$
    $\Rightarrow\text{x}=30$
    So, $\angle\text{AOC}=3\text{x}-10=3(30)-10=80^\circ$

Question 41 Mark
In the adjoining figure, $AOB$ is a straight line. If $x : y : z = 4 : 5 : 6,$ then $y =$?
Answer
Let $\angle\text{AOC}=\text{x}^\circ=(4\text{a})^\circ,\angle\text{COD}=\text{y}^\circ=(5\text{a})^\circ$ and $\angle\text{BOD}=\text{z}^\circ=(6\text{a})^\circ$
Then, we have
$\angle\text{AOC}+\angle\text{COD}+\angle\text{BOD}=180^\circ$ $[$Since $AOB$ is a straight line$]$
$\Rightarrow 4a + 5a + 6a= 180^\circ$
$\Rightarrow 15a = 180^\circ$
$\Rightarrow a = 12^\circ$
$\therefore y = 5 \times a = 5 \times 12^\circ  = 60^\circ .$

Question 51 Mark
In figure, if $l_1|| l_2,$ what is $x + y$ in terms of $w$ and $z$?
Answer

Let angle supplement of $w^\circ$ be $a^\circ $.
$\Rightarrow a^\circ = 180^\circ - w^\circ$
Now,
$a^\circ = x^\circ [$Alternate opposite angles$]$
$\Rightarrow x^\circ = 180 - w^\circ ...(1)$
Now,
$y^\circ = z^\circ ...(2) [$Alternate angles$]$
Adding $(1)$ and $(2),$ we get
$x^\circ + y^\circ = 180^\circ - w^\circ + z^\circ$

Question 61 Mark
Write the correct answer in the following:
If one angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the other two angles, then the triangle is.
Answer
  1. An equilateral triangle.
    Solution:
    Let the angles of $\Delta\text{ABC}\ \text{be}\ \angle\text{A},\angle\text{B}\ \text{and}\ \angle\text{C}$
    Given that $\angle\text{A}=\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{C}.....(1)$
    But, in any $\Delta\text{ABC},\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{C}=180^\circ....(2)$[Angles sum property of triangle]
    From equation (1) and (2), we get
    $\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{A}=180^\circ\Rightarrow2\angle\text{A}=180^\circ\Rightarrow\angle\text{A}\frac{180^\circ}{2}=90^\circ$
    $\Rightarrow\angle\text{A}=90^\circ$
    Hence, the triangle is a right triangle and option (d) is correct.

Question 91 Mark
The sum of all the angles of a quadrilateral is:
Answer
  1. 360º
    Solution:
    Sum of the angles of a polygon = (n - 2) × 180
    Quadrilateral has 4 sides,
    So sum of interior angles = (4 - 2) × 180º = 360

Question 101 Mark
How many triangles can be drawn having angles as 45º, 60º and 85º?
Answer
  1. None.
    Solution:
    If we add up the three given angles we get
    45º + 60º + 85º = 190º
    But as we know that the angles of any triangle only add-up to 180º.
    Hence the above-given triangle is not possible.

Question 321 Mark
Answer
  1. 18º
    Solution:
    In the given figure, we have xº, yº and zº forming a linear pair, therefore these must be supplementary.
    That is,
    x + y + z = 180º (1)
    Also,
    $\frac{\text{y}}{\text{x}}=5$
    y = 5x (2)
    And
    $\frac{\text{z}}{\text{x}}=4$
    z = 4x (3)
    Substituting (ii) and (iii) in (i), we get:
    x + 5x + 4x = 180º
    10x = 180º
    $\text{x}=\frac{180^\circ}{10}$
    x = 18º.

Question 401 Mark
An exterior angle of a triangle is 110º and its two interior opposite angles are equal. Each of these equal angles is:
Answer
  1. 55º
    Solution:
    Let the measure of each of the two equal interior opposite angles of the triangle be x.
    In a triangle, the exterior angle is equal to the sum of the two interior opposite angles.
    $\therefore$ x + x = 110º
    ⇒ 2x = 110º
    ⇒ x = 55º
    Thus, the measure of each of these equal angles is 55º.
